Canadian Version
Although the Hollies had become major stars in the U.K., neither their U.S. nor their Canadian labels chose to release this album. Finally, after the release of their third U.K. album, Hollies, Capitol Canada chose to release this album in an altered version on October 4, 1965 and not to release Hollies. The Canadian version only includes five of the songs on the U.K. version, while also making room for three of the band's UK non-album hits ("We're Through", "Yes I Will" and "I'm Alive"), two B-sides ("You Know He Did" and "Come On Back", which was later re-written as "Stop Stop Stop"), one song from Hollies ("Mickey's Monkey") and one other song recorded for but not included on Hollies ("Honey and Wine").
In total, the Canadian version included 6 songs written by Clarke-Hicks-Nash and credited to L. Ransford, only one fewer song than the U.K. version, and 10 different original songs were included on the two versions of the album.
